No matter how hard we try, we can hardly move at all and the tiger keeps getting closer, closer, closer seconds away from devouring us...And then we wake up and breathe a sigh of relief that it was only a dream. Wouldn't it be nice if all the problems that we are facing both individually and collectively as a global society could be so easily overcome? Well, the good news is that they can. 

Here's how...

Srila Jiva Goswami

Sri Sanatana, Sri Rupa and Sri Vallabha were three brothers, all employed in the service of the Badsa Hussain Shah. Amongst the three, there was only one descendent, Sri Jiva. Having been rewarded richly by the Badsa for their sevices, their household life was very opulent. There was nothing lacking in whatever was necessary for the upbringing of the only son.

Why is it that (in the Hare Krishna movement) you do not eat onions and
garlic?

After all they are vegetables, are they not? One can understand the

When we chant Hare Krsna mantra, we should chant with some love, with some feeling, and with the desire to please Krsna. Not that I have a quota to perform, so I will run through my 16 rounds. This is like a formality or a ritual.Freedom by surrender

It may be Possible my child that i write "As U Wish" in your Destiny..

Our business is to try our best. Result we leave it for consideration of Krishna, and we shall not be disappointed whether the result is favorable or unfavorable. Actually there cannot be any unfavorable result, because we are serving Krishna.

Surprised at the man’s wretched condition, he asked him why he was so
unhappy and why he languished in such poverty even though his wealthy
